ASEAN mayors and city governors gathered in Nanning, the vibrant capital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, to explore innovative ways for urban cooperation and to build a strong "China-ASEAN amicable home."
This dynamic meet saw leaders from cities like Vientiane, Yangon, Surat Thani, Kulim, Mong Cai, Siem Reap, and Mataram join forces to exchange ideas and best practices, paving the way for deeper trade links and enhanced people-to-people connections.
